India May Become 2nd Most Competitive Manufacturing Economy








India is likely to emerge as the second most competitive economy in the world after China in terms of manufacturing in the next five years, says a report. According to the 2013 Globle Manufacturing Competitiveness Index compiled by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu and the US Council on Competitiveness, five years from now, emerging economies would surge to occupy the top three spots.
China would retain the top spot, while, India and Brazil moving up to claim second and third rankings respectively, the report said. “India’s focused and comprehensive national manufacturing strategy, democratic governance and infrastructure development over the next five years many unlock the potential for CEOs around the world to see this rising star”, the report said.
The five developed economy nations that were ranked in the top 10 today include – Germany (2nd), the US (3rd), South Korea (fifth), Canada (Seventh) and Japan (tenth), while five emerging economy nations were also ranked in the top 10 today: China (first), India (fourth), Taiwan (sixth), Brazil (eighth), and Singapore (ninth).
Meanwhile, in the next five years developed economy nations are likely to slip lower in the executive ranking with Germany moving from second to fourth, the US from third to fifth, South Korea from fifth to sixth, Canada from seventh to eight and Japan falls out of the top 10 moving from tenth to twelfth. Brazil’s jump from eight to third is the largest jump expected over the next five years. And, Vietnam moves into the top 10 as the tenth most competitive nation.
According to the report talent-driven innovation is deemed the most critical driver of a nation’s competitiveness, while, second most important driver position is the economic, trade, financial and tax system of a nation. This study, gathers data from more than 550 CEOs and senior manufacturing leaders and rank the 38 countries in terms of their manufacturing competitiveness at present and in the next five years.

CONTEMPORARY CITY FOR THREE MILLION INHABITANTS

Urban design by Le Corbusier, 1922 Exhibited in 1922 at the Salon d’Automne in Paris, the Contem-porary City for Three Million Inhabitants was Le Corbusier’s first comprehensive urban-planning project. Accompanied by a 100-square-meter diorama, it consisted of a rigidly geometric, centralized orthogonal plan with monumental axes, uniform modern buildings, vast expanses of open space covering 85 to 95 percent of the surface, and a system of highways. The project was seen simultaneously as a breathtaking modern vision and as the destruction of the familiar urban setting. Influence on the project ranged from American gridded cities, Peter Behrens’ work, and Tony Garnier’s Une Cité industrielle (1901–04, 1917; An Industrial Town) to Bruno Taut’s Utopian Die Stadtkrone (1919; The City Crown). By 1922 Le Corbusier was one of the major figures of the Modern movement, and the Contemporary City marked a high point in a period of extraordinary activity. It incorporated two ideas that he had been...

DOM-INO HOUSES

Housing design by Le Corbusier, 1914–15 and later Between 1914 and 1915, Le Corbusier, partly encouraged by his friend Max du Bois, conceived of a standardized system of construction using reinforced concrete, which was to provide the structural basis of most of his houses through the mid-1930s. These were the Dom-ino prefabricated houses with independent skeletons. The frame was to be completely independent of the floor plans of the houses. Derived from the Hennebique frame, it consisted of six thin concrete columns that simply carried two horizontal slabs as the floors. The columns and slabs were connected by staircases. Apart from this structural core of the houses, nothing else was fixed, thus permitting a great flexibility to suit demands on the basis of aesthetics, climate, composition, or view. The floor plan was also extremely flexible, as interior partitions were independent of the grid. This utterly simple and clear “open plan” method did away with load-carrying walls. Suppor...
